Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade [Original Motion Picture Soundtrack] by John Williams on CD


John Williams' score to the 1989 adventure Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade wraps the blockbuster series on a suitably rousing note. While adhering to the action-meets-suspense-meets-comedy formula outlined via the previous films, Williams never succumbs to repetition or mere recycling, instead investing his themes with a rapturous joy that's undeniably infectious. From the mischievous "Indy's Very First Adventure" to the menacing "Brother of the Cruciform Sword," Williams' melodies operate in broad, vivid strokes, forgoing nuance in favor of larger than life thrills and chills. There's no denying Williams does this sort of thing better than anyone else, however, and for all its seeming simplicity, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade makes for genuinely exciting listening. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide

Editorial Reviews

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, while perhaps lacking the impact of the original, is an invaluable addition to the acclaimed series. Steven Spielberg, seemingly aware of the mistakes made in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, utilized the formula of the first movie without making a duplicate by providing the audience with a pseudo-historical backdrop, offering a comedic and quite understandable explanation for the elder Indiana's fear of snakes, and the origins of his famous whip and hat. The late River Phoenix, looking every inch the young Indy, provides The Last Crusade with an exciting prologue, showcasing his then unsuccessful attempt across unsafe terrain and reptile-laden circus boxcars to wrestle a precious historical artifact away from those who wanted it for all the wrong reasons. Mixing a return to form with archaeological thrills, outrageous stunts, and deadpan comedy, The Last Crusade has all the charm of the first two films combined. ~ Tracie Cooper, All Movie Guide
